Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2026 revenue ÷ FY2025 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

Percentile = share of the N covered peers reporting that ratio whose value is lower (ties counted half); computed among grepcent-covered companies in SIC industry 3674 Semiconductors & Related Devices, not the whole market. A higher percentile means a higher value of the ratio, not a better company. Ratios with fewer than 8 reporting peers are omitted. Latest reported values per company; fiscal periods may differ. Descriptive arithmetic - not a score, rating, or ranking.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Results

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 28, 2026 (this “Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations and projections regarding our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business, and can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Such forward-looking statements may include words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “target,” “strategy,” “continue,” “may,” "commit," “will,” “should,” variations of such words, or other words and terms of similar meaning.

These forward-looking statements are based on our current assumptions and expectations as of the date of this Report and are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and/or beyond our control. Known trends and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially include, among others: global macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, including trade tensions, tariffs, inflation, military conflicts (such as those involving the United States, Russia, Ukraine, Israel, Iran and other countries in the Middle East and beyond), and market volatility, which may adversely affect customer demand for our products, purchasing behavior, and the timing and visibility of orders; variability in demand across our target end markets; constraints or imbalances in the availability of certain component parts, including the current industry-wide tightness in memory chips that are used in combination with our products, as well as associated cost increases (to us and our customers), which may affect customer development timelines, production schedules, purchasing behavior, booking patterns, and the timing or visibility of orders for our solutions; risks related to our continued dependence on our solutions for the Core IoT and Enterprise and Automotive product applications market for a substantial portion of our revenue; risks related to the volatility of our net revenue from our solutions for Core IoT and Enterprise and Automotive product applications, including competition from new or established IoT and wireless service companies and from competitors with greater resources; our dependence on and/or loss of one or more large customers for a substantial portion of our revenue, and the loss of commitments from, contracts with, or a significant reduction in orders from, one or more of our major customers could have a material adverse effect on our revenue and operating results; and our exposure to industry downturns and cyclicality in our target markets.

Additional factors include risks related to the success and timing of new product solutions for existing or new markets; our ability to successfully execute on our strategy to develop integrated solutions including audio, touch, and vision interfaces with embedded processing and wireless connectivity for customer adoption; risks related to our expectations regarding technology and strategic investments and the anticipated timing or benefits thereof; historical and continued decreases in our average selling prices due to changes in our product sales mix and decreased revenue from our mobile product applications; our ability to attract and retain key talent necessary to drive our strategic initiatives, including our Edge AI strategies, in a highly competitive industry; our ability to execute on our cost reduction initiatives and to achieve anticipated synergies and expense reductions; our ability to maintain and build relationships with our customers; our dependence on and/or interruption or loss of, a limited number of suppliers and subcontractors, including suppliers’ manufacturing capacity constraints, the ability of these third parties to maintain satisfactory manufacturing yields and delivery schedules; the risk that our indemnification obligations for third-party claims could result in substantial costs; risks and uncertainties related to regional instabilities and hostilities, as well as global conflicts, such as those in the Middle East, economic volatility, and regulatory changes, any of which could disrupt our supply chain, increase costs, and undermine the competitiveness of our offerings, requiring operational adjustments, such as reductions in force, or otherwise adversely affecting our financial condition and operating results; changes in export restrictions and laws affecting the Company’s trade and investment activities; and other risks identified in the “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business” sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2025, and in our other reports filed with the SEC from time to time. Forward-looking statements are based on information available to us as of the date hereof, and we do not have, and expressly disclaim, any obligation to publicly release any updates or any changes in our expectations, or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any forward-looking statement is based, except as required by law. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any mergers, acquisitions, or other business combinations that have not been completed as of the date of this filing.

Overview

We are a leading worldwide developer and fabless supplier of premium mixed signal semiconductor solutions. We develop solutions that integrate the audio, touch and vision interfaces with embedded processing capabilities that are paired with wireless connectivity. We believe our results to date reflect the combination of our customer focus and the strength of our intellectual property and our engineering know-how, which allow us to develop or engineer products and solutions that meet the demanding design specifications of our OEMs.

Net revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 was $294.2 million and was 10.4% higher than net revenue compared to the same period a year ago. This was primarily due to an increase in net revenue in our Core IoT product applications, which increased 30.8% compared to the same period a year ago, primarily driven by an increase in units sold and an increase in average selling prices due to our product sales mix.

Gross margin for the three months ended March 2026 and March 2025 was 45.3% and 43.4%, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by favorable product sales mix and lower amortization expense on certain acquired intangible assets that have reached the end of their useful lives.

As of March 2026, our aggregate cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $404.4 million decreased by $48.1 million compared to June 2025. During the three months ended March 2026, we generated $21.8 million of cash from operating activities, and we returned $39.0 million to stockholders through the repurchase of common stock under our stock repurchase program.

Trends and Uncertainties

Macroeconomic Conditions and Regulations

As a global company, we are exposed to and impacted by global macroeconomic factors and geopolitical conditions including military conflicts (such as the ongoing conflict involving the United States, Israel, Iran and other countries in the Middle East and beyond), U.S. and foreign government policies, inflation, tariffs, interest rates, foreign exchange fluctuations, potential economic slowdowns, and evolving trade regulations and sanctions. These factors may affect our operating environment, costs and financial results.

The ongoing conflict in the Middle East has increased geopolitical tensions, including sanctions and restrictions affecting key transportation routes such as the Strait of Hormuz, contributing to volatility in global energy prices. As a result, we may experience disruptions to transportation routes and supply chains, including those involving third-party vendors, as well as higher transportation and logistics costs and broader inflationary pressures, which could adversely affect our revenue and gross margin. The extent and duration of these impacts remain uncertain, and further escalation and continued duration could materially and adversely affect our business and financial results.

Given that a significant portion of our sales and supply chain, including outsourced manufacturing, assembly and test operations, occurs outside of the United States, we are also exposed to, and impacted by, changes in international trade policies, particularly increased tariffs and other barriers or restrictions on trade between the United States and other countries, including China. Based on our current import and export practices, we believe our direct tariff exposure remains limited. However, some of our customers and suppliers may be affected depending on their own supply chain strategies and sourcing locations. We continue to monitor for any potential customer and supplier impacts, ranging from supply chain adjustments to changes in end demand. While the broader implications of these activities remain uncertain, based on our current lead times and order activity, we have not observed material changes in order patterns or timing due to tariffs, the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, or related geopolitical developments that would be likely to impact our near-term financial performance. We will continue to assess the potential short- and long-term effects of these developments on our financial and operational performance.

Industry Conditions

The continuing constrained availability and elevated pricing of certain memory components across the broader electronics supply chain have, at times, influenced the timing of orders for certain products, particularly for smaller customers. These conditions did not have a material impact on our results for the quarter; however, limited visibility into future availability, timing, increased associated costs, and the potential for these conditions to persist, could affect customer development timelines, purchasing behavior, production schedules, booking patterns, and the timing or visibility of orders in future periods. We continue to monitor these conditions and their potential impact on customer demand and ordering behavior.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Results

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including those set forth elsewhere in this report and under “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

Introduction

In this section, we discuss the results of our operations and changes in financial condition for fiscal 2026 compared to fiscal 2025. Discussions of our fiscal 2024 items and year-to-year comparisons between our fiscal 2025 and 2024 that are not included in this Annual Report can be found in “Part II – Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” in our fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2025.

Overview

We design and deliver AI-native edge solutions that bring AI closer to end users and transform how we engage with intelligent, connected devices, whether at home, at work, or on the move. We are a strategic partner for many global OEMs, offering standard and custom silicon and software platforms for Edge AI, Physical AI, wireless connectivity and human interface technologies. Our Synaptics Astra™ family of processors and wireless solutions combine embedded compute, connectivity, and multimodal sensing to support intuitive, secure, and seamless experiences. Our touch, biometrics, AI-enabled wireless connectivity, video, vision, audio, and speech processing solutions support the next generation of intelligent devices that enhance how people live, work and interact with technology.

In fiscal 2026, we achieved revenue growth with net revenue increasing 11.4% to $1,197.2 million compared to $1,074.3 million in fiscal 2025. The growth was primarily driven by an increase in net revenue in our Core IoT product applications. Net revenue from Core IoT was $389.7 million, increasing 43.1% compared to $272.4 million a year ago, and included the contribution from our Broadcom transaction. This growth was fueled primarily by an increase in units sold coupled with an increase in average selling prices due to our product sales mix. Enterprise and Automotive net revenue was $641.1 million, increasing 5.1% compared to $610.1 million a year ago. The increase was primarily driven by higher unit sales, a better product mix, and increased license revenue from certain of our IP. Mobile net revenue was $166.4 million, decreasing 13.2% compared to $191.8 million a year ago, primarily due to lower average selling prices and a decrease in license revenue from certain of our IP.

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of fiscal 2026 and 2025 totaled $442.5 million and $391.5 million, respectively. During fiscal 2026, we returned $92.7 million to shareholders through repurchase of approximately 1.3 million shares under the share repurchase program.

On June 25, 2026, we entered into the Merger Agreement, by and among Synaptics, onsemi and Merger Sub, pursuant to which the Merger will be effected, with Synaptics surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of onsemi. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each share of Synaptics common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to limited exceptions in the Merger Agreement, will be converted into the right to receive 1.350 validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of onsemi. No fractional shares of onsemi common stock will be issued in connection with the Merger. Instead, any Synaptics stockholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of onsemi common stock will instead receive a cash payment (without interest) equal to such fraction multiplied by the “Average Parent Stock Price,” which is defined in the Merger Agreement as the average of the volume-weighted average trading prices per share of onsemi common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on each of the five consecutive trading days ending on (and including) the trading day that is three trading days prior to the closing date (as reported by Bloomberg L.P. or another authoritative source mutually selected by the parties). The transaction is expected to close in mid-2027, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by Synaptics stockholders and the receipt of required regulatory approvals.

Trends and Uncertainties

Current Economic Conditions

As a global company, we are exposed to and impacted by global macroeconomic factors and geopolitical conditions including military conflicts (such as the ongoing conflict involving the United States, Israel, Iran and other countries in the Middle East and beyond), U.S. and foreign government policies, inflation, tariffs, interest rates, foreign exchange fluctuations, potential economic slowdowns, and evolving trade regulations and sanctions. These factors may affect our operating environment, costs and financial results.

The ongoing conflict in the Middle East has increased geopolitical tensions, including sanctions and restrictions affecting key transportation routes such as the Strait of Hormuz, contributing to volatility in global energy prices. As a result, we may experience disruptions to transportation routes and supply chains, including those involving third-party vendors, as well as higher transportation and logistics costs and broader inflationary pressures, which could adversely affect our revenue and gross margin. The extent and duration of these impacts remain uncertain, and further escalation and continued duration could materially and adversely affect our business and financial results.

Given that a significant portion of our sales and supply chain, including outsourced manufacturing, assembly and test operations, occurs outside of the United States, we are also exposed to, and impacted by, changes in international trade policies, particularly increased tariffs and other barriers or restrictions on trade between the United States and other countries, including China. Based on our current import and export practices, we believe our direct tariff exposure remains limited. However, some of our customers and suppliers may be affected depending on their own supply chain strategies and sourcing locations. We continue to monitor for any potential customer and supplier impacts, ranging from supply chain adjustments to changes in end demand. While the broader implications of these activities remain uncertain, based on our current lead times and order activity, we have not observed material changes in order patterns or timing due to tariffs, the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, or related geopolitical developments that would be likely to impact our near-term financial performance. We will continue to assess the potential short- and long-term effects of these developments on our financial and operational performance.

Industry Conditions

The continuing constrained availability and elevated pricing of certain memory components across the broader electronics supply chain have, at times, influenced the timing of orders for certain products, particularly for smaller customers. These conditions did not have a material impact on our results of operations during fiscal 2026; however, limited visibility into future availability, timing, increased associated costs, and the potential for these conditions to persist, could affect customer development timelines, purchasing behavior, production schedules, booking patterns, and the timing or visibility of orders in future periods. We continue to monitor these conditions and their potential impact on customer demand and ordering behavior.

Fiscal 2026 Compared with Fiscal 2025

Net Revenue.

Net revenue was $1,197.2 million for fiscal 2026 compared with $1,074.3 million for fiscal 2025, an increase of $122.9 million, or 11.4%. Of this net revenue, $641.1 million, or 53.5%, was from Enterprise and Automotive product applications, $389.7 million, or 32.6%, was from the Core IoT product applications market and $166.4 million, or 13.9%, was from the Mobile product applications market. Revenue increased in most of our product applications in fiscal 2026. Net revenue from Enterprise and Automotive product applications increased $31.0 million, primarily driven by higher unit sales (1.9%), a better product mix, and increased license revenue from certain of our IP. Net revenue from Core IoT product applications increased $117.3 million, driven by an increase in units sold (25.8%) and an increase in average selling prices (8.0%) due to our product sales mix compared to the same period a year ago, inclusive of the contribution from the Broadcom transaction. Net revenue from Mobile product applications decreased primarily due to a decrease in average selling prices (8.1%) and lower license revenue from certain of our IP.

Gross Margin.

Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue remained flat at 44.7% in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025. Because we sell our technology solutions in designs that are generally unique or specific to an OEM customer’s application, gross margin varies on a product-by-product basis, making our cumulative gross margin a blend of our product specific designs. As a fabless manufacturer, our gross margin percentage is generally not materially impacted by our shipment volume.

Operating Expenses.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased $35.0 million, to $381.8 million, for fiscal 2026 compared with $346.8 milli
